At OTAs last week, Randle was softly but firmly censured by his head coach for the Murray comment. “We addressed that with Joe immediately,” Jason Garrett said, acknowledging that Randle’s sentiment could have been taken out of context and was not meant maliciously, but also adding, “you need to focus on doing, not talking.”
But here’s the thing: Randle’s comment about Murray was astute.
Early in the offseason, I met with an AFC offensive line coach during Senior Bowl week in Mobile, Ala. He was an old-school, firm-handshake guy with an intimidating edge. Our conversation did not go particularly well. I later realized that things would have been different if: 1. I’d pronounced his name correctly upon greeting (always an insurmountable blunder); and 2. If I’d had more to ask him about the nuances of his club’s run-blocking philosophies. But, on the spot, I couldn’t think of any.
